What do the LED colours on the HovalConnect gateway mean?

The HovalConnect gateway is a white box measuring approximately 10x10 cm, which you can use to connect your Hoval system to the internet.

The gateway can be connected to the internet using a LAN cable or the WLAN antenna, depending on your configuration.

Your gateway has 3 LED indicators

Power supply LED (1)

When this LED on the left lights up, a power supply is available via the CAN bus or an external source. In cases where WLAN gateways are being used, Hoval recommends using a power supply unit to ensure that an external power supply is present.

CAN bus LED (2)

The centre LED indicator shows the status of the connection to the CAN bus:
